So I've been working on this project on an off for awhile now. Its putting the top of a CH fighterstick onto the guts of a T16000m and putting it in a compact base. Been working on it on and off for the last year.

Somewhere a long the way I've seem to have killed my hall effect sensor (MLX90333). Other than buying a another stick is there somewhere they can be sourced? Or is there a way to revive a dead sensor? Does TM provide replacement PCBs?

Haven't heard anything back but I doubt they'll want to help me.

If anyone has an abandoned T16000m project I'm interested. I guess with an extra main PCB it could be built into a button box.

So TM did get back to me pretty much saying #%&*$# off and even if they did provide spare parts they wouldnt give it to a modder.

So I guess I am out of luck.

Did you check Aliexpress? Otherwise one of the larger electronics chains such as Mouser, Element14, etc?

The only thing that worth in T.16000M is the HALL sensor. smile

You find this sensor (MLX90333) in online stores, e.g.

https://www.digikey.com/products/en?FV=fffc019d,ffe0022a&k=mlx90333

https://www.melexis.com/en/product/MLX90333/Triaxis-Absolute-3D-Joystick-Position-Sensor

But is said that MLX90333 require programming, what demands a $$$$ hardware...

I have a few A1302 hall sensors I bought a year ago that I haven't used for anything yet. With the orientation of the magnet in the base do you think it work with two sensors 90 degrees from each other? Then I could just run it into MMJOY2
